Recipe: Cindy Crawford's Strawberry and rhubarb pie from Saveur magazine as seen on Oprah
"I saw Cindy Crawford making this pie on Oprah three times (yes they run rerun after rerun of Oprah here) and it wasn't until I saw it for a third time that I thought I'd give this a go. I am naturally suspicious of a Supermodel dishing up cooking advice - someone who used to get paid to not eat telling us what to eat seems somewhat ludicrous but I liked the idea of a strawberry pie. One thing that I thought was hilarious was that her hotel and bar entrepreneur husband apparently wouldn't eat something if he knew it..."

1 1/4 cups plus 2 teaspoons sugar extra for sprinkling
